To the editor:

The Fairhaven children of today, and for 50 years to come, need our educational support now, not later. Yes, schools do reach the age of 50 years and more, and in the world of today the children need the latest of instruction and education. It is now our time to give them that opportunity.

True, some of us may not see the complete results of a new school but those to come should have the same opportunity that others had many years ago.

Let us all vote together in supporting the joining of the Rogers and Wood schools, especially when the town will receive aid from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

This message comes to you from a person who at 81 years of life has seen 52 years of that life being a part of and seeing the progress of Fairhaven children into adulthood.

Let us continue with giving our children the best of an education in a building equipped with what is needed to do so and these children, in years to come, will then do the same for the next generations.
